Monster Hunter Tri Out April
Written by FooFan @ Tue, 5/01/10 – 17:50 | 6 Comments

One of the Wii’s most anticipated releases of 2010 has been confirmed for an April release with Nintendo themselves handling sales, marketing and distribution throughout European and Australian territories.
The title’s single-player story mode sees gamers taking on the role of a hunter whose village is beset by a series of violent tremors that threaten to destroy it. Charged by the village chief to discover the source of the earthquakes, players will embark on a series of quests where they must face gigantic beasts that inhabit both land and sea.

Players will have the option to form a team of up to four hunters via Wi-Fi mode, or take part in a two player split-screen Arena mode.

“Nintendo has identified Monster Hunter Tri as a key title for the Wii platform in 2010,” stated Michael Pattison, Senior Director Marketing, Capcom Europe. “We are really excited about partnering with Nintendo to further develop this franchise.”

Is Monster Hunter Tri your most anticipated game of 2010? Or is there something else on the horizon that has your attention? Why not head on over to our forums and discuss!
